Great Peninsula Conservancy is a nonprofit land trust dedicated to protecting the natural habitats, rural landscapes, and open spaces of the Great Peninsula region of West Puget Sound, Washington. Our mission is to conserve vibrant forests, streams, shorelines and community greenspaces to help wildlife and people thrive. To date we have preserved 11,000 acres of evergreen forests, salmon streams, marine shorelines and community parks. Great Peninsula Conservancy protects land by creating nature preserves that we own, partnering with public agencies to create local parks, and by placing permanent restrictions on private land that help sustain family farms and forests through generations.
